Some Greeks Seek Jesus

20Now aamong those who went up to worship at the feast were some bGreeks. 21So these came to cPhilip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and asked him, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” 22Philip went and told dAndrew; Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. 23And Jesus answered them, e“The hour has come ffor the Son of Man to be glorified. 24Truly, truly, I say to you, gunless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25 hWhoever loves his life loses it, and iwhoever jhates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26If anyone serves me, he must kfollow me; and lwhere I am, there will my servant be also. mIf anyone serves me, nthe Father will honor him.
